Sage Day 108 -- Free and Practical Software for Algebraic Combinatorics 2020
International Workshop on Free and Practical Software for Algebraic Combinatorics
The workshop will focus on introducing the free mathematical software system SageMath to students and researchers, with emphasis on algebraic combinatorics. All are invited to participate, regardless of their initial software skills - from beginners to experienced developers.
Date and venue
Date: 12 July 2020, the Sunday preceding FPSAC 2020.
Location: Bar-Ilan University, Ramat-Gan, Israel.
Registration

Installing SageMath
As this is a one-day event, we recommend to have SageMath pre-installed on your computer before the workshop. You can do it either of the following ways:
Install from pre-build binaries. This is the easy and fast way. Go to the Download section on the SageMath website. It can also be installed on Linux using the package manager.
Build from the source code. This takes longer, but it will allow you to install the latest development version and it is strongly recommended you do this to develop for SageMath.
If you do not want to install SageMath locally on your computer, you can get a free account on CoCalc. You will then be able to use SageMath via a web browser, but an internet connection is required.
Local Information
Highlights from the visitors page of the Department of Mathematics:
Public transportation in Israel requires the ownership of a Rav-Kav card. If you plan to use buses in Israel, make sure to get one at the airport. The Moovit app is popular to find routes.
The local currency is New Israeli Shekel, abbreviated NIS or ILS.
On the campus map (PDF) you can find the main pedestrian gate #2 in a red triangle. Gate #40 is closest to many bus stations. You will be asked to present a photo ID when entering the university.
Power plugs and electricity in Israel: For a computer charger you might need an adapter for the type H socket. Appliances like a phone charger using Type C plugs (most of Europe) are compatible with it.
The campus has eduroam and an open WiFi network.
